The Award database is continually updated throughout the year. As a result, data for FY24 is not expected to be complete until March, 2025.

Download all SBIR.gov award data either with award abstracts (290MB) or without award abstracts (65MB). A data dictionary and additional information is located on the Data Resource Page. Files are refreshed monthly.

The SBIR.gov award data files now contain the required fields to calculate award timeliness for individual awards or for an agency or branch. Additional information on calculating award timeliness is available on the Data Resource Page.

  1. Embedded Sensors via Laser Engineered Net Shaping

    SBC: OPTOMEC, INC.            Topic: N/A

    Optomec Design Company proposes to use Laser Engineered Net Shaping (LENSTM), a Rapid Prototyping and Manufacturing (RP&M) technology currently under development at Sandia National Laboratories (SNL), as a new method for integrating instrumentation (e.g., embedded sensors) into metal structural components. SNL has demonstrated the ability of the LENSTM technology to produce near net shape stainles ...

  2. Adaptive Spatio-Temporal Control: a Practical Approach to Achieve Unprecedented Structural Vibration Control Performance, Robustness, and Reliability

    SBC: ETEGENT TECHNOLOGIES, LTD.            Topic: N/A

    Adaptive spatio-temporal filtering methods are proposed which are inherently suitable to utilizing many sensors and actuators to achieve superior control and monitoring of structures for vibration and shape control and damage detection. When utilizing large numbers of sensors and actuators, failure detection and failure recovery become important issues. The adaptive spatio-temporal filtering metho ...

  3. Processing of a New Class, Low-Cost Graphitic Microcellular C/C Composites using a One-Step Process

    SBC: WRIGHT MATERIALS RESEARCH CO.            Topic: N/A

    Strait pointing accuracy for the antenna and reflector of spacecraft requires structural materials with excellent stiffness and dimensional stability. Carbon-carbon (C/C) composites are prime materials for space applications because of their unique properties. Current C/C processing techniques are very expensive and time consuming. This Phase I research proposes a new class, low-cost graphitic mic ...

  4. Single Cell Carbide Fueled Thermionic Fuel Element

    SBC: Applied Sciences Inc.            Topic: N/A

    If you can't beat them, join them. Such is the philosophy of Space Exploration Associates, who hired the top talent in Russian and the new Republic of Georgia to develop advanced thermionic converters for SDIO. Unlike other highly publicized exchanged with the Russians, this work will be done in the US and no hardware will cross international lines. The metallurgical wizards from the East have con ...

  5. 30% Efficient Three Junction Solar Cells for Space Concentrator Modules

    SBC: Jx Crystals Inc.            Topic: N/A

    While 30% AM0 efficient GaAs/GaSb mechanically stacked concentrator solar cells have been previously fabricated, these cells were designed for 100 suns concentration using point focus optics. These cells also used prismatic cover slides to reduce grid shading losses, a feature which is not practical when thick cover slides are used for radiation protection. When operated at 25 suns with line focus ...

  6. Low-Mass Spectrum Separating Concentrator for Photovoltaic Power

    SBC: NEW LIGHT INDUSTRIES, LTD.            Topic: N/A

    The concentrator separates sunlight into a focused spectrum, allowing photovoltaic conversion efficiences of 50% or more through the use of several types of solar cells. The project involves generation and high-fidelity replication of surface relief diffractive structures with sub-micron dimensions. NLI's patented replication technology can be used to manufacture low cost, high quality diffractive ...

  7. IN-SITU COMPOSITES IN THE ALUMINUM NITRIDE-ALUMINA SYSTEM

    SBC: Waterjet Technology Inc            Topic: N/A

    Aluminum nitride (AlN), an electronic substrate material, is a promising ceramic for high-temperature structural applications. The self-reinforced AlN to be developed in this project will have room-temperature properties of 1000 MPa flexural strength and 7 to 8 MPa.m 1/2 fracture toughness. The composite will be free of glassy grain boundary phases. It will, therefore, have superior high-temperatu ...

  8. Very High Thermal Conductivity Micro-Filaments

    SBC: Xemet, Inc.            Topic: N/A

    Electronic cooling, micro-chip cooling and advanced materials all suffer from thermal limitations. XEMET micro-filaments used individually or embedded into matrix materials will create new families of products focused on these high-value-added markets. For electronic applications a single XEMET micro-filament 50 microns in diameter is capable of carrying 10 to 20 watts. Embedded into a matrix, the ...
